We are the public policy voice ofIowa's Protestant, Christ-centered schools.

It’s time for a social media blitz on school choice in Iowa. The Iowa Association of Christian Schools partnered with Iowa ACE, the Iowa Catholic Conference, and Americans For Prosperity – Iowa to produce a video that outlines the importance of allowing parents to make choices for their children. It also highlights the value of Education Savings Accounts and our current tax credit program.

Below is a clip we have posted on social media yesterday and today. There are more to come. Will you join us in visiting our pages on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ to share and like our posts? Let’s get the word out about parental rights in education and force candidates this election cycle to make choice in education a major topic of discussion. The video points to UnitedForStudents.com and you are able to sign up for the AFP and Iowa ACE lists on that website. We also encourage you to sign up here on this website for occasional newsletters and legislative action alerts specific to Christian schools and education in the state!

Going to the website referenced in the video[s] and signing up will add your email to the Iowa ACE and AFP email lists. If you want to ensure you get the latest on Christian schools and our efforts throughout the state, please sign up here. Spread the word as you begin to see these videos and posts pop up on our Facebook and Twitter pages over the coming months! Below is a short version featuring our very own Dean Ridder of Isaac Newton Christian Academy but you can see the full version on the United For Students coalition website.

Our newsletter summarizing the 2016 session can be found here. It outlines the victory on independent accreditation, funding issues, assessments, the ESA effort, and more.

Be sure to forward the PDF to your school parents, friends, and anyone who may be interested.

Thank you to everyone who emailed your legislators this session. Although they didn’t pass an ESA pilot program, your emails helped us get the sunset removed on independent accreditation – our top priority for ten sessions! Thank you!
